Friends of Parkies are a growing group of friends who either have, or care for, someone living with Parkinson's who, in April 2016, started an informal group to meet and exchange ideas and information in a relaxed atmosphere and to support other local groups/agencies.
They regularly invite guest speakers from various Parkinson's related organisations and others who can also offer support and have contacts for local Complementary Therapists who attend their meetings.
